Have money for tips. No long waits for trollies. Driver's are knowledgeable, some better than others for cleverness (Mr Ed!) It's a great way to get around Key West and preview possible destinations.

Itinerary

After arriving at the Port of Key West, get to know this island city and its top attractions in convenient and economical fashion on an entertaining and educational hop-on hop-off tour.

It all begins with a hop on, of course, at any of the conveniently located stops. Board one of the orange and green trolleys and enjoy the view with a live commentary of interesting facts and stories from an expert guide who knows the island inside and out. Learn about the history and happenings of Key West—stories of pirates, Indians, wrecking and the Civil War—as the trolley rolls along from one location to the next. Hop off at any of the attractions for a closer look, then hop back on when it’s convenient. 

Visit popular sites like Mallory Square, where everyone comes to hang out, eat and shop. Be sure to make a stop at the popular Hog’s Breath Saloon. There are the attractions near the historic seaport area, like West Martello Fort and Ripley’s Believe it or Not. There’s the Southernmost Point with the Key West Butterfly and Nature Conservatory. There’s also the Ernest Hemingway House and Museum and Bahama Village Market plus Key West Aquarium and Key West Shipwreck Treasures Museum. It truly is a fun and fast way to get to know the island city of Key West and the many amazing attractions it offers. 

You can also use your ticket to enter Key Wests's Sails to Rails Museum. Learn about the Ages of Sail, when thousands made their way across treacherous waters to discover new lands. You also learn about the American railroads that were built in the 1820s, which helped to connect the vast country.

A sightseeing tour of Key West has never been easier—or more fun—than this hop-on hop-off trolley tour of the island. Experience Key West in this unique way.

This excursion is located within a 20-minute walk to the cruise port, so you determine the time you return to your ship in Key West. Please allow yourself ample time to enjoy the excursion and ensure your timely return to the port. This excursion is not covered by our worry-free policy.

Frank_C, Apr 2025
Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful conductor and guide. Great overview of the island and some interesting facts.

Ok one time

Sandra_K, Feb 2025
It was ok. You can walk it as easy. One guide was informative the others not so much. Key West has serious service staffing issues! It shows!

Great Ride

Luanne_L, Feb 2025
Ride was worth it. Ride around to see what is on the tour then ride again getting off where there of things that interest you.

Instructions on getting...

Philip_B, Feb 2025
Instructions on getting voucher/ticket was vague. First Trolley operator let us on by only showing voucher. Next time we hopped back on we had someone who knew how to get voucher and give us stickers to ride. Overall a good experience on the Trolley.

Troy_D, Dec 2024
very accommodating for wheelchair accessibility.the driver was funnier than the comedian on our cruise ship

I

Sumithra_N, Dec 2024
Doug was our driver. It seemed that he was a little racist and sarcastic. The speaker voice was low so could not hear everything. Hop on hop off is great experience but the drivers should be the same to all race and color.

Experience was well worth...

ASHLEY_M, Jul 2024
Experience was well worth it. Crew was fantastic, knowledgeable, and kept us safe. Would recommend this excursion.

Long wait

Casey_K, Jul 2024
Guides were very informative and the ride itself wasn’t bad at all. However, we only ended up getting on twice for a couple stops because the wait seems very long between trolleys, especially on a hot, humid day.

Fun but hot

Rhonda_S, Jul 2024
I recommend the tour but not in the hot summer months. The tour guides were funny and informative, very nice! The busses at the very least need fans.

Great way to see Key West

Melissa_M, Jul 2024
Great way to see Key West. The tour was nice but our driver was dry and boring and although he was friendly, he took the fun out of the tour.

A very fun ride

YANI_I, Jun 2024
We only did 2 hop ons. Robert, our 1st trolley driver and tour guide, was very mindful and, at the same time, funny. He made sure that we are safe by repeatedly reminding us of the trolley safety rules. He also ensured that people could hear and enjoy his narration by letting us know when we're getting loud. I had great fun during this activity & learned a lot as well

Fun

June_H, Apr 2024
Grace was an excellent tour guide. She had lots of information along the way about the area. Many places you could explore.

Great experience

Marsha_W, Apr 2024

Totally worth the ride..

Tiare_S, Mar 2024
What a great way to see Keywest! Had a wonderful time w/my daughter riding along & listening to all the different trolly drivers share a bit of history & fun facts about the island. Like any other hop on/off tours it is the best way to get a visual of the town & then choose the stops you want to get off. Definitely worth doing, highly recommend!

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. We're glad to hear that you had a good tour and enjoyed the historical information. It's great to know that you found the trolley tour convenient for exploring the town. We hope to see you again soon!

Refund

Y_B, Aug 2023
I paid over $150 for a tour online at no time did it give me a tour time for the trolley. When I attempted to use the trolley I found out the trolley stops running at 5pm. It has been impossible to contact the company to get a refund.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Trolley experience

Steven_C, Jun 2023
Loved the ability to get on & off the Trolley. Too much emphasis on bars, however. Appreciated that when a trolley was overcrowded, a second trolley was quickly brought up.

Key West Trolley Day

Loretta_M, May 2023
Great day out well worth the ticket the drivers are so informative, friendly and helpful. Lots to see and of course you're able to return to places you want to see more of
